Environmentally Friendly News System reports that this payback phase to your Eco-friendly Revolution bikes is around three years,
which is not bad when compared to some other energy saving purchases (normal repayment for household
solar power is 8-10 years). However, what amount of power source are we discussing?
The company reports that the typical collection bicycling
course owning approximately 20 bicycles can create up to 3.6 Megawatts
(3,600,000 Watts) of renewable energy annually. A set bicycle
space which operates four courses every day has the potential to create enough power needed to lamp a typical
family home for six months, while also lowering charcoal pollutants
of more than 5,000 pounds. The power created by exercising is linked to the electrical power lines via the grid-tied inverter.
The power can be put again for the grid, which decreases
attachment to fossil fuel and oil-produced energy.
